This Privacy Statement applies to all CountryRisk.Info-owned websites and domains

CountryRisk.Info program or service will apply instead of this Privacy Statement.
Links to non-CountryRisk.Info websites
The CountryRisk.Info website may provide links to third-party websites for your convenience and information. If you access those links, you will leave the CountryRisk.Info website. CountryRisk.Info does not control those sites or their privacy practices, which may differ from CountryRisk.Info's practices. We do not endorse or make any representations about third-party websites.

Collection of personal information
CountryRisk.Info collects and uses personal information to understand your needs and interests and to serve you better. CountryRisk.Info may collect information during your visit to an CountryRisk.Info website through Automatic Data Collection Tools, which include Web beacons, cookies, embedded Web links, and other commonly used information-gathering tools. These tools collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website such as your browser type and language, access times, and the address of the website from which you arrived at an CountryRisk.Info website. They may also collect information about your Internet Protocol (IP) address, clickstream behavior (i.e. the pages you view, the links you click, and other actions you take in connection with CountryRisk.Info websites) and product information. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers use IP addresses to communicate on the Internet, allowing users to browse and shop. CountryRisk.Info may also use some of these Automatic Data Collection Tools in connection with certain emails sent from CountryRisk.Info and therefore may collect information using these tools when you open the email or click on a link contained in the email.

The information CountryRisk.Info collects to understand your needs and interests helps CountryRisk.Info deliver a consistent and personalized experience.
How we share your information
CountryRisk.Info will not sell, rent or lease your personal information to others. CountryRisk.Info may shares personal information with companies working on our behalf and CountryRisk.Info-owned business entities. Except as described in this Statement, CountryRisk.Info will not share the personal information you provide to CountryRisk.Info with any third parties without your permission, unless to: (I) respond to duly authorized information requests of governmental authorities; (II) comply with any law, regulation, subpoena, or court order; (III) help prevent fraud or to enforce or protect the rights and properties of CountryRisk.Info or its subsidiaries; or (IV) protect the personal safety of CountryRisk.Info employees and third parties on CountryRisk.Info property.
